    Winning in amount of medals, and in each individual medal tally as well.

    What are you wittering about?
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    Any measure? I'll take that bet.

    Per capita

    Tunisia 1 each type... 10 million people so that would be ~ 30 gold, silver and bronze scaling up to 300 million people
    Denmark 2 Golds, 6 million people so that would be 100 gold medals at 300 million people. Looks like mileage isn't so hot now.
    Australia 7 gold, 22 million people... ~95 gold at 300 million people

    New Zealand 5 gold, 4.4 million people ... ~ 330 gold at 300 million people. And as usual they did most of theirs sitting down.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    And the Germans just had to ruin it all. You got to love disliking the Germans for always getting the better of us, no matter what we do or whatever we don't do we won't beat the Germans. They know that and are far too smugg about it. I still secretly really like them but geez
